Is Micro-ATX allowed or no?

If it is ok, the Asus P5L-MX is a winner. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813131041 Keep in mind that ATX cases have mounting holes for mATX as well.

If the case can fit a ATX board, then it will probably fit a mATX unless theres some specific documentation saying different. If you want integrated graphics mATX is just about the only solution..

I've never seen a full sized ATX motherboard with on-board graphics, only micro-ATX.

A micro-ATX motherboard will fit easily into a standard ATX case...just won't take up the whole mounting tray or all the expansion slots on the back.
